Perhaps he should have thought of that before joining the evil empire. Though I can't really blame a kid for wanting to play at Bama.

The likelihood of him playing at Bama seems to be fading at this point. He's like ninth on the depth chart mainly behind sophmores and redshirt freshmen. Bama has two 4 star WRs coming in next season and is on the short list for 3 more of the top 10 receivers in the nation. Foster has another season (two if he is lucky) to prove his worth before his scholarship disappears.

At Pitt he'd be starting and would be headed to the NFL in three years.

- Todd Thomas started, led the team in tackles, and looked like the NFL talent he is. But where was Bam Bradley? He started against FSU but didn't play a single snap yesterday. He shouldn't be starting over Thomas, but anyone should be an improvement over Anthony Gonzalez.

the key thing is that boyd isnt the only freshman getting a lot of playing time. johnson is going to see a lot of time, ordnoff has played frequently. jaymar parrish is in the lineup just as often at fullback. webb is the nickel back. galambos gets some time at linebacker. recruits notice this stuff, and chryst isnt going to waste time on upperclassmen that wont produce. hell, there are probably too few upperclassmen that can actually produce anyway. but the point is, recruits are going to see that and say, hey, that can be me.

on another note, kenny the kangaroo has decided that tom savage is the pedro alvarez of pitt football. tremendous talents, tremendous flaws. his interceptions have been just craptastic. on the other hand, everyone has talked about how great boyd's td catch was, and it was indeed great. but savage threw that ball on the run 45 yards to the back of the endzone. there are probably like 5 guys in the ncaa that can make that throw.

I'm still willing to chalk Savage's issues to rust and needing to adjust to the speed of the game, but I'm hopelessly optimistic when it comes to Pitt football (I know, I'm insane). The first interception Saturday was incredibly Simple Jack on his part, but I'll absolve him from blame on the 2nd one.
